Key features are the synthesis of 3-methyl-4-hydroxy-2-butenolide in water and triflic acid mediated N-benzyl lactam N-deprotection. The main advantages of this process are the scalable synthetic route and decreased number of reaction steps, which paves the way for the industrial-scale synthesis of 3-ethyl-4-methyl-1,5-dihydro-2H-pyrrol-2-one.&lt;/p&gt;
